I think this is going to work. Thats not BS optimism and there is no incentive behind that statement from me. Alex actually just convinced me that people are going to like this.
I would agree Alex is very convincing. I don't know him, this was the first time I heard him speak about GPL, but seems like the kind of guy that makes things happen.
As to whether it works or not, the only thing that matters is if GPL can build an audience of sufficient size and demographics to attract interest from mainstream advertisers. Everything else is secondary.
If so, then poker world will be changed in a very positive way.
If not, then GPL will still provide short term boost to poker awareness and interest and will move the needle a bit to poker as a game of skill vs a bunch of degen gamblers.
Poker world wins either way.
Its exciting to see something fresh and innovative in this space.
I hope its a big success and wish them the best.
